Along the floors of the world's forests, deserts, and grasslands, tiny squirrels called chipmunks scurry about in search of food to stockpile in their underground burrows. Readers will discover how chipmunks build their homes, what they eat, and how they avoid danger. They will also find out how these small squirrels survive harsh winter weather and learn how to responsibly deal with chipmunks that make their way into backyards and homes. The complex text in this title allows readers to determine main ideas and explain how they are supported by key details. The grade-appropriate context helps readers determine the meaning of domain-specific words as well.
